This is a spinoff from #14804. We should allow running
ast-grep
(https://ast-grep.github.io/) rules as validation checks. This is a powerful tool (and fast).For now, running ast-grep is optional. You need to install ast-grep manually and then set this build option to the location (or name) of of the ast-grep tool:
I recommend doing this in
build-options.local.properties
. If this build option is not set, the entire task (ruleset) is ignored and a warning is printed.I've set up CI jobs on github to install and run ast-grep as part of pull requests and on-commit checks for now.
